Solver failed:
   Ocamlbuild knows of no rules that apply to a target named ocamldoc/

target with the wrong extension (e.g. .opt instead of .native) or if  
the source files live in directories that have not been specified as  
include directories.

This was all working fine before, ocamlbuild and make.

I don't mix and I always do 'make clean', 'make distclean' and './ 
build/distclean.sh'.
